Dosing isn't nearly as complicated as the literature makes it out to be. I started with using a kalk drip, it doses in the proper ratio (for the most part)

So there are a few low-techies around.....:mrgreen:

You can get away without dosing if you do regular w/c. I go 3-4 months(could probably go longer) without doing a w/c, but i dose alot(Ca, Mg, Alk, Trace, Vit's & minerals, Iodide, Potassium)to go that long without a w/c.

Although I now use dosing pumps on timers, for several years I just dosed manually. Figure out how much of each you need, test your water parameters weekly and adjust your dosing if necessary. Piece of cake. :lol:
